Pest Bird Control in Macon

Owl rescued and released from a house in Stone Mountain

There are many species of birds that occasionally make nuisances of themselves, but only three of them (pigeons, sparrows and starlings) are officially considered "pest birds." Other birds, such as woodpeckers and robins, that occasionally make themselves unwelcome are considered "nuisance wildlife."

That's an important difference to exterminating companies, who often use poisons to kill birds. Only the three official pest species can legally be poisoned. At Rid-A-Critter, the distinction doesn't mean very much because we use non-lethal bird control methods, anyway. In addition to being more humane, our methods also provide more permanent control of bird problems. Poisoning birds does nothing to address the reasons why the birds became a nuisance in the first place.

When Are Birds Considered a Nuisance?

Like other pests and nuisance animals, birds become a problem when they're in a place where they don't belong and where they're causing some sort of health or safety hazard, property damage, or annoyance.

Health and Safety Risks Associated with Birds.

There are several ways that birds can cause serious public health and safety hazards, for example:

The corrosive effects of bird droppings can damage roofs, sidewalks, vehicles, and equipment.

Cooling vents and coils clogged by bird feathers can cause equipment to overheat, leading to serious damage.

Nuisance Bird Removal and Control

Rid-A-Critter solved the bird problem at a radar tower at Hartfield-Jackson International Airport (KATL).

Bird control is very complex and potentially hazardous work that requires special training and equipment. Depending on the particular job, this may include long ladders, scaffolding, platform lifts, bucket trucks, and safety harnesses -- not the sort of thing most homeowners or handymen have access to.

Luckily, we do. Rid-A-Critter has provided professional pest bird removal and bird-proofing services to customers ranging from modest homes to power plants, airports, and other large commercial and industrial facilities. We have the experience, know-how, and equipment to handle any bird control job. There is literally no bird control job to big for us to handle; but neither is their any job too small to receive our fanatical devotion to quality.

Our approach to bird control consists of the following steps:

A thorough inspection to determine the extent of the bird problem, species involved, and how they're getting in and out.

Humane removal of existing birds.

Repair of ingress points and/or installation of netting, screens, spikes, or other exclusion or repellent equipment.

Clean-up of bird droppings, feathers, and other filth.

Sanitizing of the area and insecticide application to kill displaced parasites, if needed.

Optionally and if needed, replacement of contaminated insulation.

Also optionally, we can install Dry Under Decks, a system that helps you reclaim the area under elevated exterior decks by channeling away rain water and making the area under the deck usable.

In short, we don't just remove or kill birds like many "bird exterminators" do. We remove the birds, seal them out, and even clean up the mess they left behind. Our goal is 100 percent customer satisfaction, and we back it up with the best warranty in the business.
